Abstract	A religious-pedagogical openness is rooted in a non-fundamentalist understanding of religion and politics - that is, in a modest religion and in a properly political approach to politics. The departure from "totalism" - in terms of a Trinitarian image of God as well as a political ethos - corresponds to the differentiation of "the political" (as the principle of democratic exchange) from politics (as a strategy of societal engagement). Religion neither elevates nor instantiates secular action, because it remains fundamentally open and finds itself entangled in unbelief beyond the reach of absolutist belief "Political politics" is thus grounded in a non-normative ethic, and ultimately in an ethic of self-alienation (Oliver Marchart) that takes into account human failings. In every (political) justification there remains a plausible, unavailable remainder. Theological discourse about a groundless justification corresponds to a politics of forgiveness (Hannah Arendt).
